Several pamphlets have appeared this week regarding the unsatisfactory com- mercial relations between Germany and the United States. One, by Paul Rache, is approvingly commented upon in_the Frankfurter Zeitung. Another, by Wal- ter Borgius, much_more definite in tone, is daily quoted. Both condemn the al- leged vexatious manner in which the tariff is being applied in _the United States to German goods.

After the cheering following General Funston's remarks had suosided there were loud demands for a speech rom his wife. Chairman Fisher sflrd it was very ungallant of thousands of soldiers to de- mand a speech from a woman, but never- theless rs. Funston gratified the de- mand. “I am thankful” she saldl, “to the peo- ple of this city for the honor they }?ave conferred upon me and the kindness they have shown me. I would be glad to stay ‘here in Oakland and pass the time here with my husband. At present that is the only thing I sincerely wish for. But I cannot say where my time shall oe spent. Chaplaln Stull was charged with the duty of representing Colonel Kessler of the Montana regiment, who was unavoid- ably kept in San Francisco. He corrob- orated General Funston's statement that | he had never made a speech. “‘But,” sald the chaplain, *“I once heard the general say something more forcible and effective than all the speeches I ever heard in my life. He cried ‘Forward,’ and for the re- sult of that one word consult the history that shall be written in coming years of the war in the Philippines.” General Shafter was introduced and asked to add to the words of welcome. “It will be a source of gratification to you as vears roll by,” said the general, “'that, although you ‘were entitled to your duehn.rfe by reason of your time of serv- ice having expired, you remained in the Lu.nkl because your country needed you. t the call of a bugle Chalr- | You | You can make us | who presided over the | | the Red Cross, with exquisite grace, | pleted the task they had undertaken | waiting on the boys and convincing them that nowhere, except perhaps in their home place, can any ci warmer welcome to volunteers than Oakland.

Hastings CAN EXIST MINUS BRAIN o) G AKLAND, Oct. 14.—Dr. J. W. Wythe, one of the best-known medical men and histological professors on the coast, has published a ement that the brain is not such an im- portant organ as is commonly supposed. The statement is as follow: “In the papers of recent date was pub- lished an account of the case of Professor Riehl, whose brain was traversed by : pistol’ shot on September 9. Since that time the surgeon attending him es that ‘fully one-fourth of the b: exuded, from the wound made in_h Your correspondent indulges in cons erable speculation respecting his future mental condition, evidently regarding the » as unique. The doctor declares that he has found no mention in medical and surgical literature of a parallel case. “Considerable acquaintance with sur- gical literature leads me to a different opinfon. In_my _book entitled ‘The Physlology of the Soul' T have collected eighty-one such cases—seventy-two of these are from the Pennsylvania Hospital reports—in which there was extensive loss of brain substance with little or no dis- turbance or aberration of mind. At the cession of the California_State Medical Soclety In San Francisco, 1857, one of the members exhibited the skull of a man who had been tomahawked and scalped by the Indians in 1S5l The skull had a jagged hole in it about four by three inches wide. Nearly the entire middle lobe of the cerebrum had rotted away, vet the man for ten years showed no bodily or mental signs of his Injury and was re- garded as a miner of considerable intelli- gence. “The subject is hardly suitable for a newspaper article, as it would require too much space, or a large number of cases and facts might be gathered show- ing that the common opinion that the brain is the special organ of mind is er- roneous. Its sensory-motor function is work enough for the brain. The common opinfon_is_made to uphoid the present mode of philosophy called monism, while it confirms a rational dualism of the real existence of both body and soul. J. H. WYTHE, M.

Bennett was making the rounds of the electric light service with James Shan, another employe, and they wers about to make some repairs on one of the arc lamps. Shan had climbed the pole and was lowering the lamp to the ground. Bennett, in the meantime, was stationed at the base of the pole, with one hand on the metal reel handle, and as tne lamp descended he took hold of it with his other hand, completing the circuit. The electric current passed through his body and he was instantly Killed. His body fell across the handle of the reel, d’ with great difficulty and at a great visk to himself Shan_ succeeded in mov- ing the body away. Shan also recelved a shock, but was not seriously injure The ‘deceased was a native of this State. He was the son of George Bennett and was held in high esteem by the entire community.
